Re: how long till im clear

Your last experience should give you a good idea of how long it takes your body to respond. The good news is you realized it and reacted quickly. Did you shower in hot water? If so, not good since hot water opens the pores of your skin enabling the oil to sink in better. You should always wash with COLD water (if you did, kudos!) and use a detergent that breaks up oil (like dish soap). Everyone reacts a bit differently but based on my own painful experiences if you're showing no signs after 5-7 days you should be in the clear.
